About the Item

This early 20th century Persian Lilihan rug, measuring 2' 4" x 3' 3", displays a richly stylized floral arrangement in a striking vertical symmetry. Set on a warm ivory ground, the central design features an elaborate tree-of-life composition, its trunk branching into large palmettes and rosettes rendered in shades of crimson, rose, and deep indigo, accented with sky blue and touches of gold. The blossoms are outlined for definition, creating a vivid contrast against the field. Smaller floral sprays fill the negative space, enhancing the lush, garden-like atmosphere. The main border, in deep indigo, is adorned with a continuous vine of alternating floral rosettes, flanked by narrow guard stripes in red and blue, which frame and balance the central imagery. This piece exemplifies the Lilihan weaving tradition, combining bold coloration with fluid botanical forms, resulting in a compact yet visually impactful work ideal for display or intimate floor placement.
